He Never Saw Anything Like It.

The story of the twins is the latest
A father of twins was naturally very
proud of them, and when they came to
II presentable age he insisted on a friend
calling to sec them. The friend agreed,
and named the day. The twins were
dressed in their best, put side by side
in an armchair, and awaited inspec-
ton.
Now, the friend had been lunching
rather heavily. and drinking rather
freely. and, consequently. his vision was
not rs perfect rs it ought to have been.
However. he went to admire the twins,
and was ushered into the room where
they were. There" exclaimed the
proud father, ''dld you ever see any
thing to match that?" Tie visitor,
conscious of the possibility of an optical
delusion. quietly replied. Quite right;
it's q splendid child."-Wh teAalt Re

A sure cure for Blind, Bleeding,
Itching, and liberated Piles, has beer
discovered by DR.. William, ian Indian
remedy )called DR.. WILLIAMS INDIAN
OINTMENT. A single box has cureu
the worst chronic cases of twenty-five
years standing. No one need suffer
five minutes after applying this won
derful soothing medicine. Lotions and
instruments do more harm than good
Williams Ointment absorbs the tu-
nors, sJlays the intense itching, (par-
ticularly at night after getting VAIN
in bed,) acts as a poultice, gives in
stsnt and painless relief. and is pre-
pared only for Piles, itching of the
private parts, and for nothing else.

How Cinnamon Advertise.

The great advertising medium of
Chinatown is tall telegraph-pOle in
front of the Wo Kee store in Mott street,
few doors from Chatham square. The
pole is about two feet in diameter, and
it is always girdled by belt of adver-
tisements written in Chinese characters
on sheets of yellow. white, or fire.
cracker red paper. The girdle is three
or four feet broad, and thus the avail
able advertising space is from eighteen
to twenty-four square feet. This does
not suffice for the needs of Chinatown,
and another telegraph pole on the op-
posite side of the street, out toward the
corner of Park street, gets part of the
business
When the Chinese avail themselves
of this advertising medium they are re-
minded of the pervcrsity of this western
people in doing almost everything in a
way Numerically different from their
time-hOnored oriental method. There
is never any doubt as to the circulation
of this advertising medium. for. as in
the case of that o!hcr post the Evening,
nobody claims that it circul;tteS. 1t
stands there year in and year out. and
the readers do the circulating. Thus,
there is no chance for hocus pocus. 1t
is possible that. with their not very ex-
act ideas as 10 modern western appli-
ances, they may suspect that there is
some beneficial influence in the mys-
terious buzzing that is heard up among
the lofty wires. The prohibition Post
no Bills" does not appear on the pole.
If it is there it is covered up by many
thicknesses of .'dead-ads
In xphn hra
all parts of the city flock TO Chinatown
to pick up the weeks news concerning
their race, each visitor steps up 10 the
pole and consults the announcements
made thereon. They run largely to for
sales. to lets. and wants. When
Chinalnan has anything for sale. from
alaundry to a pair of chopsticks, he
pastes an announcement on the big
telegraph pole. Comparatively few of
them are able 10 write the notices them
selves, but they know where they can
find scribes who will do it for them in
good shape for reasonable pay. The
notices are almost invariably written
with admirable neatness, and without
display. No cuts are inserted. There
seems to be an understanding that no
man shall occupy more of the common
space than reasonable setting forth of
his announcement requires.
Among the new advertisements re-
Gently were the announcements, made
in good commercial Cantonese, that a
laundry in Harlem, with a well-estab-
lished Mclean custom, could be pur-
chased at a reasonable figure by apply
ing on the premises. and that mer-
chant in Chinatown had just opened
new importation of a Chinese edible,
for the name of which the intelligent
resident of that quarter who translated
for the reporter could find no English
cquivalent-N J. SIN.
